Still smiling :D
and so is the snowman!Eventually the road is re-opened and we're off again.We head into Toronto to start our deliveries. We are on a roll :D, until we got to our 7th delivery, the last one of the day. We have seven snow mobiles for them but they only want one!! What the hell do we do with the rest?I'm sure they'd make cool Christmas presents, lol, but dispatch arrange for us to leave them at Big Freight, Toronto. 
The next day we finish the deliveries and head to truck town to met a broker. We transfer his load onto our trailer, its a salt box and snow plough ;0, collect a delivery for Newfoundland and head back to Dartmouth. Its snowing again, maybe we should have fastened the plough to the front of the truck instead of loading it onto the trailer.
We arrive back on December 19th, almost five weeks after leaving for our first trip to Nebraska!
Now all we have to do is deliver the snow plough and salt box in Dartmouth and go Christmas shopping.Overnight it has been snowing, but we head to Burnside Ind Park to make the delivery.
Our destination was on a hill with a set of traffic lights :( unfortunately the temperature had risen turning the snow to slush. As we approached, the lights turned red, oh no the car in front starts sliding in all directions, we can see where we need to be but there's no way we're going to get round the corner now.Rod reversed back to have another go, whilst a pick up truck is throwing salt/grit under our wheels, he just gets the truck going again when the car drivers behind us decide " oh the lights have changed lets overtake" which would be fine but as soon as they get past us they also start to slide and lose control :0
eventually after about thirty minutes of trying we got round the corner and turn into the delivery yard.
We finish the delivery and head home for Christmas. What an adventure, lets hope the New Year is as interesting,lol.
